At times, we are like of them: Thomas, Peter, Philip, James, the saints Thomas, wondering, wandering, at times unsure, through the ages, and yes, even you and I.

In addition to the three services of the Triduum (Maundy Thursday evening, Good Friday noon, and the Easter Vigil on the Saturday evening), the choir will again sing for the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday evening at 7:00 p.m. a devo- tional exercise based on the Way of the Cross, at which we are joined by many of our Roman Catholic friends from around London. We then come to Easter Day, Sunday, April 1. Traditionally, we have always celebrated this morning of the Resurrection with a joyful service accompanied by St Paul’s Cathedral Brass. This year, mindful of the financial situation at the cathedral, we were unable to provide a budget to engage the players. The cost of the five professional brass players, who attend a two-hour rehearsal before Easter as well as play for two hours on Easter Sunday itself, is $1,500.

  • Networking Anglican Settler Colonialism at the Shingwauk Home, Huron College, and Western University
    22 Historical Studies in Education / Revue d’histoire de l’éducation ARTICLES / ARTICLES “My Own Old English Friends”: Networking Anglican Settler Colonialism at the Shingwauk Home, Huron College, and Western University Natalie Cross Carleton University Thomas Peace Huron University College ABSTRACT Focusing on Huron College, Shingwauk Residential School, and Western University, this article considers how common social and financial networks were instrumental in each in- stitution’s beginnings. Across the Atlantic, these schools facilitated the development of net- works that brought together settlers, the British, and a handful of Indigenous individuals for the purposes of building a new society on Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe Land. Looking specifically at the activities of Huron’s principal, Isaac Hellmuth, and Shingwauk’s principal, Rev. Edward F. Wilson, the article demonstrates how ideas about empire, Christian benevo- lence, and resettlement entwined themselves in the institutions these men created. Specifically, Anglican fundraising in both Canada and England reinforced the importance of financial networks, but also drew upon and crafted an Indigenous presence within these processes. Analyzing the people, places, and ideologies that connected Huron, Western, and Shingwauk demonstrates how residential schools and post-secondary education were ideologically — and financially — part of a similar, if not common, project. As such, the article provides a starting point for considering how divergent colonial systems of schooling were intertwined to serve the developing settler-colonial project in late nineteenth-century Ontario. RÉSUMÉ En se concentrant sur le Collège universitaire Huron, le pensionnat Shingwauk et l’Université Western, cet article examine le rôle-clé que les réseaux sociaux et financiers communs ont joué aux origines de chacune de ces institutions.
